Ottawa’s tourism body has granted special museum status to a collection of 76 festivals, restaurants, concert venues, and attractions as a way to shine a light on some of the city's cultural hidden gems.
Dubbed the Unofficial Museums campaign, the move aims to attract travelers to the Candian capital by celebrating culture and creativity in Ottawa all year long.
“Seven of Canada's nine national museums are found in Ottawa, along with dozens of other notable museums and galleries,” said Michael Crockatt, president and CEO of Ottawa Tourism.
“By granting museum status to 76 grassroots institutions this summer, we're showing the world the range of cultural experiences that Canada's capital has to offer, and signaling to the world that Ottawa is ready for visitors.”
